Dont want to be a killjoy - no pun intended - but for an island 150 x 50 a thousand plus murders a year wouldnt attract me
In 2014, Jamaica saw a decrease in murders and other serious violent crimes. It is believed that the reductions in crimes may be attributed to overall proactive police actions. Most violent crimes, especially murder involve firearms. There were 1,005 murders (the lowest figure in a decade, 195 less than 2013, which is a 16.6 percent decline over the past year to date), 1,227 shootings, 580 aggravated assaults, 792 rapes, 2,631 robberies, 2,443 break-ins recorded in 2014. With a population of approximately 2.8 million people, Jamaica continues to have a high homicide rate (36/100,000), which places it among the highest (per capita) national homicide rates in the world.
